There recently appeared in the press a statement relative to the tub erculosis eradication program as con ducted in Nebraska that three "coun ties which were being tested for the first time in 1530, namely, Madison, Nance and Platte, were found to con tain a small number of tubercular cattle. Madison, 103; Nance, 137; Platte. 88." The facts, as revealed by the state aid federal records as to the amount of tubercular infection found in these three counties during 1930, are as follows: In Madison county, 1,960 herds were tested. On 166 farms tubercu lous cattle were found representing 8.4 per cent of the farms in the county; 31,316 cattle were tested; 323 tuberculous cattle were found, representing 1 per cent of all cattle tested. The same records reveal the fol lowing results of Nance county where 1,156 herds were tested; tuberculous cattle found on 155 farms, represent ing 13.4 per cent of al lthe farms in Nance county; 20,699 cattle test ed; 285 tuberculous cattle found, rep resenting 1.3 per cent. In Platte County. In Platte county the records show that 2.358 herds were tested and on 131 of these farms tuberculous cat tle were found, representing 5.6 per cent of the farms in Platte county; 41,188 cattle were tested, 361 tuber culous cattle found, representing .88 per cent of the cattle tested in the county. The same article carried a state ment also about the disposition of reactor cattle slaughtered under fed eral metL iniet;iiuii luirs. cum iw i the information of the general public, Dr. John R. Mohler, Chief of the United States bureau of animal in dustry says in this regard: It is unfortunate that attempts are made from time to time to in terrupt the progress of tuberculosis eradication work." In discussing the disposition of re - actors to the tuberculin test slaugh tered under the federal meat inspec tion rules.

"In the United States tho accept- ance of a common program for con trolling production is prohibited by the example of a country where such agreements are not only permissible, but also enforceable at law." The whole process of industrial re organization in Germany, the board explained, may be summed up in the term "rationalization," which, under the hands-off policy of the state, has spread to all aspects of the economic I problems involved. "The aim of rationalization," ac- cording to the study, "is to eliminate that competition which competltion which results from fnnltv In .1 trmpn t nf i n rl i vi H 'la 1 ri- ducers, from their miscalculations of the market, and to coordinate the ef- fort flrst of individual enterprises within an industry; second, of the different enterprises within a coun try, and, finally, of the competing industries in two or more countries. "Rationalization, in its broadest sense, aims to eliminate errors of judgment due to faulty knowledge of market conditions, by vesting the power to regulate production, fix prices and allocate territories in a central authority.

"While the organization of cartels may bo of a more or less temporary nature, there are also certain other associations of a permanent charac ter, such as mergers and combines.
